+.SH DESCRIPTION
+startpar is used to run multiple run\-level scripts in parallel.
+The degree of parallelism on one
+.B CPU
+can be set with the
+.B \-p
+option, the default is full parallelism. An argument to all of
+the scripts can be provided with the
+.B \-a
+option.
+Processes blocked by pending
+.B I/O
+will cause new process creation to be weighted by the iorate factor
+.IR 800 .
+To change this factor the option
+.B \-i
+can be used to specify another value. The amount
+.EQ
+weight = (nblocked times iorate) / 1000
+.EN
+will be subtracted from the total number of processes which could be
+started, where nblocked is the number of processes currently blocked
+by pending I/O.
+
+The output of each script is buffered and written when the script
+exits, so output lines of different scripts won't mix. You can
+modify this behaviour by setting a timeout.
+
+The timeout set with the
+.B \-t
+option is used as buffer timeout. If the output buffer of a
+script is not empty and the last output was
+.I timeout
+seconds ago, startpar will flush the buffer.
+
+The
+.B \-T
+option timeout works more globally. If no output is printed for
+more than
+.I global_timeout
+seconds, startpar will flush the buffer of the script with
+the oldest output. Afterwards it will only print output of this
+script until it is finished.
+
+When the
+.B \-n
+flag is used, output from a running job is prefixed with the name
+of the program or script being run.
+
+The
+.B \-M
+option switches
+.B startpar
+into a
+.BR make (1)
+like behaviour. This option takes three different arguments:
+.IR boot ", " start ", and " stop
+for reading
+.IR .depend.boot " or " .depend.start " or " .depend.stop
+respectively in the directory
+.IR /etc/init.d/ .
+By scanning the boot and runlevel scripts in
+.I /etc/init.d/
+it then executes the appropriate scripts in parallel.
+
+The
+.B \-e
+option allows the user to set the location of the system's etc configuration
+directory. The default is to use /etc. Using \-e we can use alternative locations
+such as /usr/local/etc.
+
+The
+.B \-f
+option causes startpar to copy standard input (stdin) to standard output (stdout)
+until startpar reaches the end of input or the process is killed. When \-f
+is used no programs are started and other parameters on the command line are
+ignored. This option is only kept for legacy purposes.
+
+The
+.B \-v
+option tells startpar to print its name and version number. When the
+version flag is used, all other command line parameters are ignored.
+The version number will be printed and startpar then immediately exits.
